26 % of people playing games are over fifty, which is an

increase from a mere 9 % in 1999…

When player reaches the maximum prize level, dopamine is released in the same amount,

regardless of the nature of the prize…

55% of people would work for a company that offered games as a way to increase productivity…

56 % showed no difference between games and conventional instruction.

32 % favoured games against 5 %
